Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup mayonnaise
1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
½ lime, juiced
1 pinch salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
4 slices bacon
8 extra-large shrimp - peeled, deveined, and tails removed
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and sliced
2 leaves romaine lettuce
4 slices ripe red tomato
6 slices sourdough bread, toasted

Steps:

  • Combine mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, lime juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Puree until smooth with a stick blender. Alternately, you can use a food processor to puree the ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until ready to assemble sandwiches.
  • Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Toss the shrimp in a bowl with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook shrimp on the preheated grill until they are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, about 3 minutes on each side.
  • To assemble sandwiches: Spread prepared mayonnaise dressing generously on 1 slice of bread. Arrange half of the shrimp and avocado slices on top. Place another slice of bread over the avocado, and spread another layer of the dressing. Top with a lettuce leaf and 2 slices of tomato followed by a third slice of bread. Repeat with the remaining ingredients for the second sandwich.
